Wei Zi-liang didn't say a word. He just stared at Lin Qian silently. After a long time, he left the courtyard once again, leaving Lin Qian in a daze.
After leaving the courtyard, Wei Zi-liang took out an item and looked at it carefully. Then, he took a deep breath and said, "What the hell."
After a long while, Wei Ziliang, who had confirmed it carefully, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and walked into the courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, Wei Zi-liang looked at Lin Qian with a strange gaze.
"This … Little Lin, what do you think?" After returning to the courtyard, Wei Zi-liang's tone changed slightly. He looked at Lin Qian and said in a negotiating tone, "You help our Wei family participate in this competition and fight for our honor. To show our sincerity, I now announce that the Wei family will merge with the Hua Xia Empire. What do you think? "
Pfft!
Wei Wushuang and Wei Qingqing, who were standing at the side, spat out the wine in their mouths.
Wei Yuqi and Gao Kaifeng's eyes widened. They looked at their father in disbelief and were speechless. On the other side, the Third Elder, Wei Zhongcai, who had been observing silently, looked at his elder brother suspiciously, as if this was the first time he had met him.
He knew very well how much effort his elder brother had put into developing the huge Wei family to this stage.
Even though there were some external factors, at the end of the day, he still relied on his elder brother, Wei Zi-liang.
In the past, if someone had mentioned to him that his elder brother would use the huge family business of the Wei family for nothing, he would never have believed it.
But now, his elder brother's words had completely overturned his image of his elder brother.
Everyone, including Lin Qian, looked at Wei Zi-liang and was momentarily speechless.
The entire courtyard was silent. Only the sound of water flowing into the lake could be heard from the rockery.
Lin Qian and Wei Zi-liang stared at each other. After a long while, the former laughed bitterly and looked at the other. "Grandpa Wei, you must be joking. This is too … scary."
Indeed, in the three hundred years since the war with the Hundred Battles Alliance, the Hua Xia Empire had developed rapidly. However, in the eyes of the Wei family, this kind of strength was probably nothing.
After all, they were a great family that had developed for a long time. Of course, if they brought out the Mystic Illusion Planet, they would be crushed without any suspense.
If the Wei family really merged into the Hua Xia Empire, then their external power would increase rapidly.
Of course, it was impossible to move all the resources of the Mystic Illusion Planet here. The Hua Xia Empire had its own balance, and it needed to develop step by step.
If they moved a large amount of resources from the Mystic Illusion Planet into the external Hua Xia Empire, then the external Hua Xia Empire might collapse directly.
Moreover, there were a lot of resources that were too shocking. Currently, the external Hua Xia Empire could not consume these resources, nor could it use them.
Merging the local forces into the Hua Xia Empire was the best way to increase the strength of the external Hua Xia Empire.
However, the Wei family was just too big.
Although Lin Qian did not know how powerful the Wei Clan was, the vast Sea Swirling Galaxy was only one of his Master's private territories. It was easy to see how big the Wei Clan was.
Wei Zi-liang seemed to have expected Lin Qian's reaction. "Indeed, this decision may be hard for you to believe for a while. However, there is no need to rush this matter."
"How about this? This time, we will help the Wei family and participate in this trial. If we can enter the top 100, then the entire Wei family will merge into the Hua Xia Empire. If we can't enter the top 100, then we will discuss it later. What do you think? "
On the other side, Wei Zhongcai hurriedly said with an anxious expression, "Big Brother, I'm afraid the other family members will not agree to this decision, right?"
"That's right. Grandpa Wei, think about it carefully. This is not a small matter." On the other side, Lin Qian also tried to persuade him.
This was really not a small matter. Taking over the Wei family had to be considered carefully.
Merging into the Hua Xia Empire was too advantageous for him. Lin Qian was a little wary. Could there be something fishy going on?
"Hmph! Objection? Could it be that they've forgotten who established the Wei Clan? They might not have forgotten who is the one supporting the Wei Family. " Wei Zi-liang didn't care about Wei Zhongcai's words. He waved his hand. "It's fine if they don't agree. We can split from the family and take what they deserve. I won't stop them from leaving the Wei family."
Everyone was shocked by Wei Zi-liang's words.
Lin Qian was also moved. Wei Zi-liang's words clearly implied that the Wei family wouldn't rest until they merged into the Hua Xia Empire.
This unimaginable attitude made Lin Qian even more confused. What was Wei Zi-liang thinking?
"Grandpa Wei, since you've said so, then this junior will agree to your request. I will represent the Wei family in this trial. If I succeed, the Wei family will merge into the Hua Xia Empire. If I fail, then we'll forget about this matter. The Wei family and the Hua Xia Empire can form an alliance. It'll be mutually beneficial. How about it? "
"Mm, that's fine. It's decided then." Wei Zi-liang was very satisfied with Lin Qian's suggestion. He clapped his hands. "I hope we can get a good ranking in the trial. This way, our Wei family will be able to hold our heads high. You will also gain fame and fortune. It's a double blessing."
Lin Qian also smiled, but he still felt that it was very strange.
This kind of thing only benefited him no matter how he looked at it. It wasn't a good thing for the Wei family.
Logically speaking, he should be the happiest one. However, in Lin Qian's eyes, Wei Zi-liang was even happier than him.
After the family banquet, Wei Zi-liang was received by the maidservants and returned to his residence.
Wei Wushuang stayed behind on purpose. After Wei Zi-liang and the others left, he looked at his disciple with a strange expression. "Disciple, do you know why grandfather is acting so strangely?"
"I also want to ask master what's going on. Isn't Grandfather Wei a little too enthusiastic?" Lin Qian was also confused. "What's the difference between this and giving the Wei family to me for free?"
"Who knows? In any case, grandfather single-handedly built the Wei family. He can do whatever he wants. No one has the right to interfere." Wei Wushuang shrugged helplessly.
It was Lin Qian's turn to be curious. He looked at Wei Wushuang. "Master, disciple doesn't quite understand. Didn't you always say that the Wei family is united? Didn't the other clansmen contribute?"
"The Wei family is united. It's because of their successful management. Right now, ninety percent of the territories of our Wei family were taken by grandfather. " At this point, Wei Wushuang's eyes were filled with reverence. "And Grandpa was alone."
